Laurel Thatcher Ulrich


Well behaved women seldom make history.

Erich Fromm


We all dream we do not understand our dreams, yet we act as if nothing strange goes on in our sleep minds, strange at least by comparison with the logical, purposeful doings of our minds when we are awake.

Calvin Coolidge


Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

W.H. Auden


Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.

Virgil


All these souls, after they have passed away a thousand years, are summoned by the divine ones in great array, to the lethean river. . .In this way they become forgetful of the former earthlife, and re-visit the vaulted realms of the world, willing to return again into living bodies.

Saint Francis de Sales


Do not wish to be anything but what you are, And try to be that perfectly.

Anon.


Who's General Failure and why's he reading my disk

Earl Warren


Everything I did in my life that was worthwhile I caught hell for.

Albert Einstein


It is only to the individual that a soul is given.

Niccolo Machiavelli


Men are so simple and yield so readily to the desires of the moment that he who will trick will always find another who will suffer to be tricked.

If you believe in God a pastor can help you believe also in God's forgiveness.
